Got ding from Columbia for the third time yesterday.
Irony is that I received the email from Columbia while I was out for drinks celebrating a close friend's admission. Didn't want to spoil her party so couldn't even tell anyone. Gotta do that now.
I had a bump in my GMAT score, promotion at work with increased responsibility, more international experience and clear goals, making my profile competitive. Or so I thought..
Good thing is that NYC would have been a very expensive place to live..
